SharePoint 2013 Search Architecture

Enterprise search had a serious makeover in 2013. It combines the best of SharePoint 2010 Search and FAST. Search administration is configurable at the site collection level with new result sources, query rules, and result types. Search centers use javascript and JSON based web parts for refinement and results. Each result item displays managed properties based on rule syntax including the new document preview hover panels. Developers can access search results with SOM, CSOM, and REST. This talk will show you how to build effective search solutions that combine all the new features.
